Abstract-Vorschau

Background: Polarization of T cells towards a Th2 cell based immune reaction is one of the key events in the development of allergic asthma. During the polarization process the Th-1 cytokine IFNγ is silenced by epigenetic mechanisms like de novo DNA methylation while Th2 cytokines are up regulated. Method: In order to show that epigenetic regulation by DNA methylation is essential for Th1 versus Th2 cell polarizatio…
